An audience favorite at our last four biennial Festivals, American chamber ensemble ACRONYM make their début on BEMF's annual concert series with a program featuring an astounding 15 modern premieres from the German Baroque—February 14 in Harvard Square and streaming virtually February 28 to March 14.

Join ACRONYM members Doug Balliett, Loren Ludwig, Kivie Cahn-Lipman, and Elliott Fig discuss the "Drese Effect" and the revelatory music of cousins Adam and Johann Samuel Drese who helped shape the musical landscape that Bach entered into. Learn more at bemf.org/concert-season/acronym
